Warriors of Anatolia. A Concise History of the Hittites - Trevor Bryce

Notes

(Asterisks indicate English translations of Hittite and other texts.)

CHAPTER3THEDAWN OF THEHITTITEERA

1. Billie Jean Collins’book,The Hittites and their World(Atlanta, 2007), also
   discusses many aspects of Hittite history and civilisation covered in the
   following pages.


2. Though we cannot be sure whether or to what extent all inhabitants of the
   kingdom referred to themselves in this way.


3. For possible connections between Bronze Age and biblical Hittites, see Trevor
   Bryce,The World of the Neo-Hittite Kingdoms(Oxford, 2012), pp. 64–75, and
   Billie Jean Collins,The Hittites and their World, pp. 197–218.

   P. Goedegebuure).


5. There is much uncertainty about the family links between the earliest
   Hittite rulers. In the following pages, and later in the book, I make Hattusili
   I the grandson and successor of thefirst Labarna, though I also allow the
   possibility that he succeeded his aunt Tawananna. But there are other
   possibilities; see e.g. Richard Beal,‘The Predecessors of Hattusili I’,in
   G. Beckman, R. Beal, and G. McMahon (eds),Hittites Studies in Honor of
   Harry A. Hoffner Jr(Winona Lake, 2003), pp. 13–35.


6. On this episode, see*William Hallo and K. Lawson Younger (eds),
   The Context of Scripture(3 vols.) (Leiden, Boston, 2002) 2/3, p. 81, §20
